Hi, I am also unable to install the JRE-plugin, using the installation instructions on http://www.java.com/en/download/help/linux_install.xml#selfextracting.
Meanwhile I have repeated this install-procedure for at least two JRE version, and always Firefox seems to notice nothing of the JRE plugin. Today (again) I have tried installed the file jre-6u20-linux-i586.bin into /usr/java/jre1.6.0_20/ (directory with user account rights). Then I've created a symbolic link to the libjavaplugin.so as described (with: sudo ln -s /usr/java/jre1.6.0_20/plugin/i386/ns7libjavaplugin_oji.so into the path /usr/lib/firefox-3.6.3$ ) But somehow I am not succeeding, no java plugin is displayed in Firefox (neither about:plugins, nor menu extra->Add-ons->plugins) -- cannot find a java plugin https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/556923 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
